AfterES Windows Roof Replacement & Installation in Pompano Beach: What to Know First
We replace and install ES Windows roof assemblies and skylight systems across Pompano Beach, and we do it as an independent ES Windows service provider, not a factory warranty center. Most ES Windows roof replacement jobs in Pompano Beach run $900 to $3,400 depending on the glass package, frame condition, and whether we’re dealing with laminated impact glass or standard insulated units. That range covers the work you’re likely facing, parts and labor included, with a written quote before we touch the roof. If you own a home with an ES Windows roof system and you’re seeing water streaks, fogged glass, or a frame that’s pulling away from the curb, call (863) 591-8673 and we’ll tell you straight what it’ll take to set it right.
How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Condensation between panes on ES Windows’ Skyline series roof glazing. We see this on Pompano Beach homes within seven to ten years of install, almost always because the factory edge seal was stressed during the original drop-in. The heat and humidity here push moisture into any micro-gap in the butyl, and once that seal goes, the glass fogs and the argon escapes. We don’t attempt a field reseal on roof units. We replace the insulated glass unit and rebuild the glazing pocket with a marine-grade sealant rated for continuous exposure, because Pompano Beach is not a dry climate and any shortcut shows up within a season.
- Frame rot and corrosion on ES Windows’ aluminum roof vents and ridge-line skylights. Salt air is relentless here. We regularly pull ES Windows roof units in the Pompano Beach Highlands and Pompano Isles neighborhoods where the factory finish has pitted and the corners are holding water. The frame looks fine from inside the house, but up top it’s weeping. Our fix starts with a full inspection of the surrounding roof curb, then we replace the compromised sections with the same extrusion profile ES Windows uses, not a generic box channel.
- Skyline series operator arms binding or stripping on venting roof windows. ES Windows uses a compact operator mechanism on their venting roof units, and the linkage doesn’t tolerate debris or sand. We get calls from Pompano Beach homeowners who’ve had a roof window crank fail twice under a handyman’s repair because the wrong gear ratio was used. We replace the operator with the ES-specific gear set or a machined equivalent, and we set the vent travel so the arm isn’t overextending at full open.
- Weep hole clogs on ES Windows’ Clearline fixed roof glazing causing water to pool against the glass. ES Windows designs their fixed roof units with small weep channels that drain to the exterior. In Pompano Beach, those channels fill with pollen, salt crust, and roof debris within a couple of years. The symptom is water staining on the interior drywall below the unit. The real cause is a design that assumes owners will clear the weeps annually, and nobody does. We clear the channels, replace the gaskets, and in many cases enlarge the drain path slightly without violating the unit’s rating.
- Laminated glass delamination on impact-rated ES Windows roof assemblies. This is the one that separates us from a general roofer. We’ve pulled ES impact roof units in Pompano Beach where the laminate layers are separating at the edge, visible as a milky ring around the perimeter. That’s a manufacturing problem, but by the time you see it, the unit is usually out of its shortest window coverage. We log the glass code, check whether the unit carries any remaining lamination warranty, and if not, we quote a direct replacement. We don’t patch delaminating glass, and we’ll tell you that on the first visit.
Our ES Windows Roof Replacement & Installation Process
- 1
We start with a call and a lookup. You reach a live person, not a voicemail tree, any hour of the day. We get the approximate install year, the roof access situation, and what you’re seeing. Then we pull the ES Windows documentation we have on file for that series.
- 2
We inspect the unit from both sides. Up on the roof and inside the house. We check the curb, the flashing, the frame corners, the glass edge, the operator if it vents. Dale Kessler grew up in the Pompano Beach Highlands, and he taught us to treat salt air corrosion as the default, not the exception. We look for where the water’s actually getting in, not just where it’s showing up.
- 3
We give you a written quote with line items. OEM ES Windows glass and frame components where they’re still available, quality aftermarket where they make more sense and won’t void a remaining warranty layer. You see every part and every labor hour on paper before you say yes.
- 4
We do the replacement on the scheduled day. We protect the area inside, pull the old unit, address the curb and flashing if needed, set the new unit, and seal it with products rated for coastal Florida exposure.
- 5
We test it before we leave. Water test on the exterior, operation check on venting units, and a look at the interior for any light leaks at the edges. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 6
We register whatever warranty remains. Per The Keystone Standard, both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. If a unit is out of manufacturer coverage, we put our own workmanship terms in writing. That’s been the rule since Dale Kessler started this company: if it isn’t in writing, it isn’t a warranty.
What ES Windows Roof Replacement & Installation Costs in Pompano Beach
Here’s what we quote most often in Pompano Beach, with parts and labor together.
- Fixed ES roof glass replacement, single unit, standard insulated glass: $900 to $1,400.

What moves the price: roof pitch and accessibility, whether the existing curb is sound or needs new wood, the glass package you’re replacing, and whether we’re doing one unit or several. On Pompano Beach two-story homes with steep roof pitches, a replacement that would take an hour on a flat roof takes three, and we quote it that way honestly. No surprise line items on the bill. Call (863) 591-8673 and we’ll give you a written quote for your exact ES Windows situation.

FAQs
If the unit still carries an active manufacturer warranty on the glass or frame, using non-matching parts can shorten or void that coverage. If it isn’t in writing, it isn’t a warranty. We check the glass code and the install date before we order anything. When OEM parts are available, we use them. When they’re not, we tell you in writing what the aftermarket part means for any remaining coverage, before we start the job. Call (863) 591-8673 and we’ll run your unit’s history at no charge.
Most single-unit ES Windows roof replacements are done in one visit, typically four to six hours depending on roof pitch and whether the curb needs repair. If we’re replacing multiple units or rebuilding flashing, it may run into a second half-day. We’ll give you the schedule in writing before we start. Call (863) 591-8673 for a time estimate on your specific roof setup.
Yes, when the failure is a replaceable component: an operator gear set, a gasket, a weep channel, or a seal on a unit where the glass itself is still sound. We won’t repair a fogged failed seal or a delaminating piece of laminated glass, because those can’t be fixed in the field and stay fixed through a Pompano Beach rainy season. We’ll tell you which one you have and quote both paths honestly. Call (863) 591-8673 for a straight answer.
OEM parts are made to ES Windows’ original specifications and keep any remaining warranty language clean. Aftermarket parts, where we use them, are often machined to the same or better tolerances but won’t carry the ES brand name. For roof units, we lean OEM on glass and frame extrusions because the exposure is too unforgiving to gamble with mismatch. For operator gears and gaskets, a quality aftermarket part can outlast the original. We show you both on paper, with prices, and you decide. Call (863) 591-8673 and we’ll walk you through it.
Most single-unit replacement work on existing openings doesn’t require a separate permit in Pompano Beach, but when we’re rebuilding a roof curb or changing the opening size, we pull the permit and coordinate the inspection. We’ll tell you during the quote which category your job falls into, in writing. Call (863) 591-8673 for a free estimate and we’ll include any permitting cost in the line items.
If you’ve got an ES Windows roof system that’s been worrying you, call (863) 591-8673 and tell us what you’re seeing. We’ll give you a straight answer, a written quote, and the schedule before you commit to anything. That’s how we’ve done it since the beginning.
